Envelopes with adhesive strips or flaps
Envelopes with a peel-off adhesive strip or with more than one flap that folds over to seal must use
adhesives that are compatible with the heat and pressure in the printer. The extra flaps and strips
might cause wrinkling, creasing, or even jams and might damage the fuser.
CAUTION
Failure to follow the guidelines above can result in jams.

Labels
Select the type of label that you are using from the Print dialog box or the printer driver.
CAUTION
To avoid damaging the printer, use only labels that are recommended for laser
printers. To prevent serious jams, always use Tray 1 or Tray 2 to print on labels. Never print
on the same sheet of labels more than once or print on a partial sheet of labels.
When selecting labels, consider the quality of each component:
●
Adhesives: The adhesive material should be stable at 210°C (410°F), which is the printer
fusing temperature.
●
Arrangement: Only use labels with no exposed backing between them. Labels can peel off
sheets with spaces between the labels, causing serious jams.
●
Curl: Before printing, labels must lie flat with no more than 13 mm (0.5 inch) of curl in any
direction.
●
Condition: Do not use labels that have wrinkles, bubbles, other indications of separation, or are
damaged in any way.
